The Terri Schiavo thing

[Yellowbelly]

:roll:

Starving to death is really a painless way to die and isn\'t that bad really. But the real issue is: is it wrong to let her die? I don\'t really like mentally challenged, retarded, deficient, (whateveryouwant) people. But do I think we should kill them just because they\'re too dumb to live? No. They are human beings to, and they should have rights. Especially when they had them before. If she is still alive, and she\'s consious, I don\'t see the big deal here. If we can\'t let retarded people die or if we can\'t let ppl in comas die, how is this any different. If we let this person die off, we might as well kill all other mentally retarded people as well because they aren\'t fit to live and won\'t amount to anything. Liberals want the husband to chose, which he\'d kill her, but yet they don\'t want the death penalty at all costs? I\'m baffled.

edit: I got more of the story. The husband does seem like a big jerk and has a criminal record. She should be kept alive for a chance for rehabilitation and an investigation on how this collapse happened. It sounds to me like the husband tried to kill her. If that\'s the case, they should keep her alive in spite of the husband anyways just to piss him off and/or send him to prison. Supposedly the family and friends know her too well and think she places too high of a value on life to die.

Anyways, this is a tough situation and I\'m beginning not to care anymore. Just keep here alive, make everyone happy except the husband and don\'t give him the money, and start an investigation on the husband to put him in prison. Done. Over. End.....................................................

Also, if I\'m ever in this situation and I have no chance of FULL rehabilitation, let me die will ya?
